May 18 the 138th day of the year in the Gregorian Calendar (139th in leap years). There are 227 days remaining.
Cliff Arnall, lecturer in the Department of Lifelong Learning at Cardiff University, Wales, announced in 2005 that May 18 was the best date in the year on which to make a resolution. He calculated this using a formula which took into account the factors of motivation, opportunity, proximity to a Bank Holiday, increasing hours of daylight, reflection time and success.
